I am sick and tired of Bush beating the drum about the elections in Afghanistan. Ohh.. The first voter was a 19 year old woman. How cute. That doesn't change the fact that the elections were not successful because all of the candidates besides the US backed candidate dropped out in the middle of the election. First of all, we need an investigation into whether their accusations of unfair election practices regarding the thumb ink are correct. Further, what the hell is the USA doing interfering with their election by backing a candidate? That is not the way an election is supposed to work.. talk about failed democracy. And now you think Iraq is going to work?
